The Closing Bell

Well, it’s about that time. Time to turn off the lights, lock the doors and meet up with our fellow group therapy members. But before we do we’d like to leave you with new dates for Black Label Society, David Byrne and Lily Allen, and links to items about Boy George, classical music downloads, Chinese Democracy’s fine print and the early ‘60s garage band credited with inventing .. everything!
